Default DID I FIX IT?

A few days ago my car started acting up, Well I finally got some time to look at it today. Fist thing I checked was the spark plugs and I noticed that when I took them out they weren't very tight, so I cleaned them up put the back in and went for a ride. After a few hard pulls she seems fine. Do you guys think that was it? O yeah by acting up I mean sputtering at high RPM's, sorry almost forgot.

The reason I ask is because she wasn't sputtering every time I punched it(but most) Thanks for your feed back.

If it doesnt have the same problems it had before, then i think it would be safe to say that you fixed it.

It could have very likely been the spark plugs...

The only reason I ask is because she sat for about a week and a half before I checked it out, and if there was no way that could be it I was gonna move on to the fuel filter. But yeah I know, if it doesn't do it again its fixed.

If the plugs were the reason what was going wrong? loss of compression?

Perhaps the gas was starting to get funcky. Maybe the bad gas ran through so it cleaned out. I guess it could be the spark plugs have been the spark plugs too.
